I could not run the android application never on my laptop. Eclipse gives same error constantly, that is \"ADB server didn\'t ack\"
When I manage to start adb server
Sometime, like it or not. The command "adb kill-server" have not effect.
So, please try other way
taskkill /f /im "adb.exe"
adb start-server
timeout 5
adb devices
pause
Copy it to notepad and save them with extension is ".bat"
ex: re-start.bat
Now, you can restart adb very quickly by double click to file !!!
